Toyota mobility service concept vehicle
Toyota just launched a new mobility service car that is fully autonomous, on a platform for ride sharing and hailing. The new ‘e-Palette’ concept car looks like a small shuttle, with a modular interior that can be changed depending on whether it’s used for ride-hailing, small cargo transport and on-demand delivery, or any other mobility uses. The e-Palette is intended to begin testing for potential market feasibility in the U.S. in the early 2020s, and will also hopefully be in use at the Tokyo Games in 2020, according to the carmaker. It includes Toyota’s autonomous driving software and is a fully electric battery vehicle. Techcrunch said.
